Congestion in Antwerp and Rotterdam, Yesterday’s storm

At present, average waiting times for the handling of barges in the seaports are:

Antwerp 24 hours
Rotterdam 35 hours

Since yesterday, storm front Eberhard has been sweeping across Europe and has resulted in delays. Especially in the seaports the storm has caused operations to be stopped. In Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium the rail infrastructure is still suffering.

Due to the enormous backlog of trains that have been unable to run as a result of the storm, it must be expected that the situation will still take several days to return to normal.
